We had four experts in Cardiology and Emergency Services who shared their experiences with cardiac biomarkers and discussed their importance as a POC diagnostic tool in Emergency Departments (ED). The eminent panel discussed why NT-proBNP is more suitable to use and can aid in the correct identification and selection of patients who need an ECG study as well as guide future treatment pathways.
